Yes, it is possible. Some hints - use second order time and space differencing; do a mesh, timestep and convergence sensitivity study to check these parameters are OK; and finally get access to a big computer to run it on as it is going to take plenty of computing power.

Re: Fluid instability simulation

Dear Glenn,

If possible can you please write the hints in a bit details or mail me at dkverma.iitk@gmail.com . As I never did simulation I just went through some easy ANSYS tutorials. Basically my work is experimental and I am interested to do its simulation using ANSYS.

Thanks Dinesh

Re: Fluid instability simulation

Hi,

Work through relevant tutorials, read the documentation, have a look on the CFX-Community site for relevant technical tips, have a look in the literature for what other people do. I am not going to summarise 15 years of CFD experience in a "how to CFD" guide, I don't have the time.
